With MT history evaluating QBs do you have confidence he will get it right in next years draft?
Gerry Dulac
10:41
I'm never that confident about anything when it comes to drafting players
Bill in Anchorage

Hi Gerry.  Do you think Omar makes a trade for a number two receiver or is satisfied with the current players?  Thanks.
Gerry Dulac
10:42
I think they are willing to have Calvin Austin back for now

Hi Gerry. Is your name pronounced like Jerry or Gary?  Because I could see either way.   Thank you.

Gerry does Max Hurleman come to our practice Squad also what do you think about us cutting Chuck Clark who will be the starting safety along with Elliot?
Gerry Dulac
10:44
Hurleman could be back. Clark wasn't going to be the starting safety. Just a backup. Juan Thornhill is the other safety, but when they are playing their base defense Ramsey will be the other "safety."

What are reasonable expectations for the Steelers’ offense this season with no proven RBs, a lack of a quality number 2 WR, and a 41 year old QB that hasn’t played in a game yet for this team?
Gerry Dulac
10:44
10-7 is reasonable

Hey Gerry, do you think the Steelers path to their next Super Bowl is better served by 1 and done in the playoffs this year (or even a loss in the second round) or a losing season and better draft position? Seems like at least four other teams will be looking for QBs and a high number of Steelers playmakers are already over 30. I’m not sure I see much of a fast track either way tbh. Thanks -
Gerry Dulac
10:46
Getting to the second round of the playoffs shows you are not that far away, so I'm going to guess that might be the better path. You can always trade for better draft position

So a little less than 2 weeks out from Game 1. Which starters or imprtant pieces may not be ready? Harmon? Herbig?
Gerry Dulac
10:46
Both.

Gerry - thanks for the chats! It seems the Steelers feel comfortable with Wilson as the WR2. Are you, or would you be looking for an upgrade?
Gerry Dulac
10:47
They are looking at Austin as the No. 2 WR, but Wilson is going to be used.
Carl in Carrick
10:47
Gerry, the fact that Waitman did a nice job holding for Boswell…was that perhaps the determining factor of him winning the punting position?  Thanks.
Gerry Dulac
10:47
No, that's like asking if Rodgers is the starting QB because he hands the ball off to a RB better than the other guys.

Gerry - Is it true that Mike Evans schooled Jalen Ramsey in their joint practice? I heard Ramsey got shredded.
Gerry Dulac
10:48
Practice.
Jim in MD

Are these Steelers good enough to compete with the likes of KC / BUF / BAL in meaningful games?  Could you see them winning a playoff game against any of these teams?
Gerry Dulac
10:48
Baltimore, yes. The others, no.
Todd in Cleveland
10:48
Andrew Fillipponi said it's HIGHLY LIKELY Diontae Johnson returns. Any truth to that?
Gerry Dulac
10:48
Oh, OK
Mike

Gabe Davis clearly isn't healthy or his hands are more stone than flesh.  Bills don't want him.  Steelers have a need and let him leave town. Cooper signed with the Raiders.  

What's most likely?
Tyler Boyd?
Nelson Agholor?
a former Rodgers receiver?
No move at all.
Gerry Dulac
10:49
Not those first two.
MarkyMark

Do you expect Will Howard to be put on 4 game IR
Gerry Dulac
10:49
I do. And we'll see for how long
Jersey Danno

Odds of a Mike Hilton reunion?

Out here in Phx and try to get as much Steeler info as I can.  Overall, watching this off season, do you personally feel they have a little better or little worse team than last year? (As a whole)
Gerry Dulac
10:50
After the Ramsey/Jonnu Smith deal, better
Ty Hink
10:50
Gerry, although I think the team does need a WR2 if we properly utilize our two TEs, it should work. I remember in 2012 Gronk and Hernandez were virtually impossible to stop. Maybe a cut WR isnt necessary at this point.
Gerry Dulac
10:50
Now you're thinking!

Morning Gerry! Any way-too-early thoughts on QBs to draft next year? Thanks for your great work.
Gerry Dulac
10:50
Right....too early
Epiballo

How would you rate the play of Mason Rudolph in the preseason. As expected, or less so? Can he effectively take the reins if Rodgers goes down?
Gerry Dulac
10:51
As expected. Very solid. Great backup. Can win games with him
Ty Hink
10:51
Gerry, just want to say glad the steelers try hard every year to give the fans a good product. All the fans that say another 10-7 year don't know what its like to have the season over before Halloween. Ill take that every time over a tankd season which guarantees you nothing in the next draft. plenty of teams miss on a top ten QB.
